Note: Henry George Keller 'Henry Keller': A very influential modernist American painter of the early twentieth century, Henry George Keller first studied art at the unlikely institution of the Western Reserve School of Design for Women, in 1887. Unable to find a teaching position in Cleveland he worked for eight years at the Morgan lithograph Company designing circus posters. In 1899, Henry Keller resumed his artistic education in Germany and studied at the art academies of Munich and Dusseldorf. His art received a silver medal at the 1902 Munich Kunstakademie exhibition. He returned to Cleveland in 1903 to begin teaching as an instructor of watercolor at the Cleveland School of Art. Henry George Keller also created his own informal school at his family home in Berlin Heights, Ohio, during the summers of 1903 through to 1914. As a teacher of watercolor and drawing techniques, Henry Keller's influence was vast. Some of his most important pupils from this period include Charles Burchfield, Paul Travis and Frank Wilcox.
  Beginning around 1910, Henry Keller championed the cause of modern art, both in his drawings and paintings and through his lectures and writings. In 1913 he exhibited two of his paintings at the now famous New York Armory Show, which introduced modern art to America. During the following years, Henry Keller's art was included in major exhibitions at such institutions as the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Art Institute of Chicago and at the Cleveland Museum of Art.
  As well as being a master of landscapes and figure studies, Henry Keller devoted much of his talents to depictions of animals, particularly in his original etchings and lithographs. Keller's first experiments with etching date from around 1910. During the 1920's and 1930's a number of his etchings and lithographs were commissioned by both the Print Club of Cleveland and the Print-A-Month Club. In the Meadow is typical of Henry Keller's extraordinary ability to capture the essence of his subject with a minimum of lines and shades.
